Thessaloniki's 2,300 Years Of History + Exclusive Souvenir

What an unexpectedly delightful tour and wonderful guide. We thoroughly enjoyed and would recommy

We had such a great time on this tour! Our guide, Vasiliki, was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, and made Thessaloniki's history really come alive. We discovered so many places and stories we would never have found on our own. A fantastic way to get to know the city and its fascinating past. Highly recommended!

I only had two days in Thessaloniki and wanted to really understand the city's history, not just walk past its monuments. Booking this walking tour with dot2dot was an excellent choice, and Vaso was a fantastic guide. She brought 2,300 years of history to life, from the Roman and Byzantine eras through the Ottoman period to the modern city, and connected it all in a way that was easy to follow. Her knowledge and passion made every stop interesting. She answered all my questions and also gave me great tips for the rest of my stay. If you're short on time and want to get to know Thessaloniki properly, I highly recommend this tour. It gave me context for everything I saw afterwards. Thank you, Vaso!

My family enjoyed the walking tour of Thessaloniki with Vasiliki, who is a very knowledgable guide. It turned out to be a private tour for our family. It was good to hear the history and learn how the city changed over time through the greek, roman, byzantine, and ottoman rules.

Vasiliki is one of the best-informed guides that we have ever encountered. Based on specific requests, she came prepared with huge quantities of photographs and other relevant material to broaden her explanations as she walked us through the historical sites in the center of Thessaloniki. It was a splendid day.

Tour guide Vasiliki was on time for pick up - actually she was a bit earlier which was nice Vasiliki’s knowledge and enthusiasm was shown through her VERY WELL prepared sets (plural) of laminated cards of pictures and information - bringing the history to life Her story telling was great and well structured and the many ‘secrets’ of the city locations & events made the tour enjoyable Thank you and keep bringing the History Alive!!! P.S. all your other recommendations for clothes, luggage and restaurants were good - been to ALL of them. Thank you

Vasiliki and her tour partner at Dot 2 Dot- hands down- have the vibe on the city not only as contemporary women, but as accomplished scholars! She makes it thoughtful and fun at the same time, while accommodating your own ADD if you want to look at something and veer off. The price is worth it. Their education is worth it. You make a lifelong friend. I can't say enough about what I learned regarding all the occupations, the sites, the flavor the texture the everything of Thessaloniki! You have friends now in Colorado, Vasiliki!!! Xoxo (we know you are royalty!).

The storytelling, and photographs bought the history alive and meant we gained a real appreciation of just some of the history of this important city. Vassalekey was outstanding and included just the right amount of info for us to absorb and process. What a delight she was, her passion, knowledge and pace of the tour means we left feeling really pleased we had booked this tour.

Our tour guide was excellent and was a superb historian. We greatly enjoyed our tour and highly recommend.

Deniz was very professional and full of interesting stories. Of course he was very knowledgeable about the sites we had planned to visit but was also very interesting to talk to about general culture and in particular about fine rugs from the area. Definitely a memorable tour!

Dot2dot is the MUST experience in Thessaloniki. I had attended in the past private tours, so I hired them in a corporate event as well. All my guests were super excited and enjoyed the experience! Trust the experience and enjoy!

Our guides were great. I would highly recommend them. We spent a full 3 hours learning of the history of Thessaloniki from 400 BC through the present day. Their ability to speak English was pretty good. We probably walked about 3 kilometers total and sat down several times while they spoke.

I love the way the introduce you to the history of this town. Bringing to life old stories so you can be a part of it and see the old days.

Great way to see the city. Lots of fun. I enjoyed the actor who would appear to tel us a story. Its a fascinating old city in the times of Alexander the Great.
